After nearly half a year of public announcement, the GS 3, a half-masked honor watch with a pipa, is finally on sale. Searching for this new product on the Internet, it is not difficult to find that many netizens are waiting anxiously, and some consumers have asked whether to wait for the glory watch GS 3 new product to be sold, or choose the previous glory watch GS Pro? Indeed, the glory of smart watch products because of the blessing of many powerful self-developed sports health algorithms, in the entire wear industry enjoys a very high reputation, and gained a large number of users of the love, it is rumored that in order to polish a better manufacturing process and functional performance, honor watch GS3 postponed the sale, but from a good meal is not afraid of the position of late, we do not say who is more suitable, but take advantage of the heat, here on this belated new product to quickly explore.
Although the smart watch is born from the traditional watch, as long as it is a watch, no matter what the function, the product value is the most intuitive first factor we choose. From the appearance, the honor watch GS 3 is both classic and fashionable, at the time of release, this product according to the design, a total of three theme series of global voyage, streamer classic, racing pioneer, in order to meet the aesthetic needs of different users. As a post-80s editor, after experiencing the traditional watch, naturally has a special love for this streamer classic series on the hand.
It can be said that the word "streamer classic" as its name, this steel with leather design language and Vacheron Constantin, Patek Philippe, Longines, Wanguo, Plum Blossom and other world-famous watch brands of the classic style is the same, excellent thickness control, rose gold color matching plus comfortable touch leather strap, if it is not because of the screen dial and unique sports health functions, Honor watch GS 3 really can not see is a smart watch.
Not just to make a look, the Honor Watch GS 3 feels a little demanding in terms of material and craftsmanship. This watch is only 10.5mm thick, the weight is only 44g (excluding the strap), the main material of the watch body is 316L low-carbon steel, weight and hardness are undoubtedly the best choice, but in order to make the rose gold of the watch body permanent and wear-resistant, and can show a better color, its surface is large-scale using rose gold (gold and pure copper alloy material) four-layer electroplating process, not only bright and brilliant color, but also extremely hard, effectively avoiding the surface scratches. The strap is also made of selected Nappa first layer calf leather, the surface is soft, the cut and stitching is meticulous, with the same color needle buckle of the watch body, it is very comfortable and breathable to wear.
In terms of the functional design of the watch body, the Honor watch GS 3 adopts a double crown design, with a 1.43-inch AMOLED round screen on the front, its pixel density reaches 326PPI, the display accuracy has far exceeded the past, and the brightness of up to 1000 nits is also very clear and sharp in the outdoor display, plus high hard 3D curved glass coverage, with high impact-proof, scratch-proof reliability. The back provides an integrated physiological recognition sensor with higher fit, and with a magnetic charging cradle, the overall experience convenience is very good.
In fact, the honor watch GS 3 uses the integration of classic and modern technology design, to a large extent subvert the public's perception of smart watches, just as many people thought that THE DISPLAY OF CASIO PROTREK WITH A TITANIUM STEEL STRAP WAS VERY UNIQUE A LONG TIME AGO, AND THIS WATCH ALSO RETURNS TO THE CLASSIC.
In terms of intelligent functions, the honor watch GS 3 performance is very complete, for smart watches and sports scenes, heart rate is almost a benchmark for sports intensity and sports safety measurement, it can directly reflect whether the exercise is qualified or excessive, but also can judge the health level of the athlete. Honor watch GS 3 can achieve more accurate real-time heart rate measurement function, and the heart rate is classified according to different states, including resting heart rate, exercise heart rate, etc., which can timely inform and reflect the drastic changes in sports heart rate, prevent users from heart risk in sports, and provide high reliability evaluation value in sports.
Among them, the biggest advantage over the previous product is that it has been greatly upgraded in the heart rate detection process, equipped with a new 8-channel heart rate AI engine, and integrated with the latest HONOR Health 5.0 software and hardware collaborative optimization technology. In simple terms, this technology uses an 8-channel PPG heart rate module to intelligently integrate heart rate signals, and achieves high-precision heart rate detection through frequency tracking algorithms and AI heart rate algorithms. Its advantage is that the 8-channel heart rate module solves the problem that the wrist fit of the smart watch is not tight when wearing, resulting in signal inaccuracy, after signal collection, the heart rate AI fusion technology can also further eliminate the noise of the heart rate signal, greatly enhance the anti-interference ability of monitoring, the combination of the two can obtain the most accurate heart rate measurement data before the heart rate calculation, and then after the frequency tracking algorithm + AI heart rate algorithm dual algorithm processing, to obtain a continuous and accurate effective value.
In the actual test, we deliberately loosened the Honor Watch GS 3 wristband buckle in one position to observe whether the heart rate data actually detected was lost. In fact, this way of wearing will be common for many users, especially in the hot summer, and it is more comfortable to wear loosely. However, throughout the experience, the heart rate changes and continuities given by honor watch GS 3 are normal and complete, which shows that HONOR Health 5.0 has played a great role in improving wearing requirements and accurate measurements.
It is worth mentioning that because of the blessing of HONOR Health 5.0 technology, this device also supports heart rate monitoring in swimming sports scenarios. Because when swimming, the water will enter the bottom of the watch detection device and the wrist skin gap, and during the exercise, the upper arm swing paddling action and the role of low water temperature will affect the blood flow and thus interfere with the heart rate detection, and through this new technology, the physiological detection of swimming sports is no longer a problem, but it is necessary to remind users that the streamer classic leather strap is not suitable for long-term immersion, and we can replace it with the rubber strap re-entering the water experience through the quick-release function of the glory watch GS3 strap.
The same health function, blood oxygen detection and sleep monitoring function in the Honor watch GS 3 also brought upgrades. Among them, in terms of blood oxygen, the Honor Watch GS 3 brings continuous blood oxygen monitoring, which can track the change of blood oxygen value in real time, which not only has an early warning effect on the danger of a sharp decline in blood oxygen during exercise, but also provides accurate reference for sub-healthy people such as long-term overtime and staying up late in daily life. In terms of sleep, the product can subdivide the user's sleep process into four cycles of light sleep, deep sleep, REM rapid eye movement and wakefulness and monitor and compare them separately, and finally give a complete and scientific sleep quality assessment, of which respiratory effect monitoring can be described as one of the highlights, especially for users with snoring, sleep apnea and other users is particularly important. And the Honor Watch GS 3 also gives more scientific solutions to improve sleep effects, such as bedtime music, meditation, etc., so that health starts from the complete improvement of sleep.
Although the appearance of the Honor Watch GS 3 is very elegant and gentlemanly, it is really no less than any professional equipment when it comes to dealing with sports. This product increases the support of sports modes to 104 kinds, in addition to dozens of conventional scenes such as indoor running, outdoor running, walking, cycling, etc., it also includes support for professional sports such as jump rope, mountaineering, hiking, triathlon, skiing, etc., and even indoor rowing machines, elliptical machines and other equipment sports modes. The key is that these functions have a powerful intelligent perception mode, combined with heart rate, blood oxygen and other monitoring data, to achieve professional exercise evaluation effect evaluation and guidance, while for daily training, but also support the use of rich sensors for each mode of exercise status for professional records, such as running time, distance, pace, and calories consumed, detailed data at a glance, compared with the glory watch GS 3 related guidelines, We can clearly know whether we have reached our desired goals during the entire exercise.
Excitingly, more scene movements of the Honor Watch GS 3 come with positioning support, and it is L1+L5 dual-frequency positioning, and supports five major satellite positioning systems, including not only the most commonly used GPS and Beidou, but also the support for Russian GLONAS, European Galileo and Japanese quasi-zenith positioning systems, whether jogging in high-rise cities or hiking in jungle-packed mountains, this device can bring more accurate positioning and accurately record the trajectory of the movement.
We experienced the outdoor jogging relying on the watch's own positioning function, in the corresponding sports mode, the Honor Watch GS 3 can independently calibrate the track, the star search speed is also very fast, and the route is very accurate, there will be no crooked phenomenon, with the help of the pace and many other information records, for the athletes who often jog, there is no need to tie a mobile phone on the arm. Moreover, this watch also joins the trajectory return as the previous Honor watch GS Pro, which can automatically record the anchor point through the watch during outdoor sports, and use the mobile phone to assist in establishing a waypoint album, the entire sailing trajectory is very clear, if once it is found that the lost or the route is not right, it can be returned through the trajectory point, which greatly improves the safety of field activities.
It is worth mentioning that there are also very rich healthy sports resources in this watch, such as combining hardware-level perception to give more scientific exercise guidance. Taking the tutorial on the "Sports Health" mobile app as an example, the Honor Watch GS 3 can provide a scientific warm-up before exercise to avoid irreversible accidental injuries caused by insufficient or unscientific warm-up during exercise, and there is also relaxation training after exercise to release the accumulation of lactic acid generated by high-frequency exercise and prevent the fatigue and soreness effect after exercise. At the same time, indoor field sports also provide more non-instrument guidance, such as flat support and yoga training, etc., this systematic exercise guidance method is obviously not available in other sports smart watch products. Therefore, the Honor Watch GS 3 is not only a record-type sports equipment, but also a full-featured professional sports training tool, which can achieve the safety and efficiency of non-professional exercise, so that ordinary users can also enjoy the guidance of professional-level trainers in the gym.
General functions we will not repeat too much, honor watch GS 3 for the expansion of smart phones on the wrist can be described as unabated, such as all kinds of reminders, weather, rich and diverse dials, support for two-dimensional code payment, support for NFC electronic bus cards and access control cards, support for Bluetooth headphones, support for independent music playback and other functions are readily available, and this device supports the installation of third-party APP, Baidu, AutoNavi map, business travel, Himalaya and other common applications are also supported.
In this regard, many netizens may be more concerned about the battery life performance of this product. In fact, although the sensor of this smart watch has increased unabated, but the actual endurance has not weakened at all, in the typical application mode, the Honor Watch GS 3 can easily cope with up to two weeks of battery life, and even if all the real-time monitoring functions are turned on, it can still achieve a week of endurance, especially after the field hiking to open the positioning, the Honor Watch GS 3 can still adhere to 30 hours of continuous tracking and positioning in the case of extreme power consumption.
And fast charging is also a highlight of this product, compared to the earlier smart watch to charge five or six hours, honor watch GS 30 ~ 100% charging process time takes less than an hour, due to the integration of fast charging technology, the first half of charging can quickly replenish the power, only five minutes of charging can bring a full day of battery life, so that in daily use there will no longer be because of insufficient power, high-time charging and make the monitoring data long-term interruption occurs.
brief summary:
The biggest highlight of this watch is the all-round upgrade and expansion of the original definition of the function, from the acquisition of data to the combination of the scene presentation, the progress of the honor watch GS 3 can be described as a jump, rather than changing the style and then selling, which gives the user an upgrade iteration, replacing the old equipment on the wrist a fairly sufficient reason.
Therefore, we think that the use of "wild gentleman" to describe the glory watch GS 3 is still more appropriate, if only by virtue of the elegant and classic appearance is difficult to imagine that this watch can actually cope with cross-country, iron three such professional sports, wearing a tie is a work and life helper, wearing a ski suit is a professional sports equipment, for the current white-collar people obviously no more suitable.
